Abstract

The Chinese art market is flourishing at an incredibly high speed. The purpose of this paper is to lift the veil off the prosperity of the Chinese art market and to reveal what the underlying problems and the real reasons for the morbid development are. Interviews show that the Chinese art market is driven heavily by corruption and money laundering. A survey is conducted to probe the public's readiness to invest in Chinese art. Finally some recommendations are offered to deal with the problems and challenges associated with the Chinese art market.
